Pretty sure Jeff Bezo's grandchildren won't see it, of course
Did you mean that you can get any music now? Because there's a fair bit of music that I'd like which is not digitally available still. And some that once was but is no longer - so you have to get rare CDs second hand to get it.

If we do as well with books as we have with music, that would be a massive step forward, of course - but that has taken more than 20 years since CDs first appeared.
